Cannot access gmail this morning via firefox and clearing cookies does not help - no idea what to do next
Came into work this morning and couldn't open firefox at all, restarted computer twice and now after an update I can access firefox but gmail is giving me the cookies error - clearing cookies still won't let me access the site, and I am at a loss now. Never encountered anything like this in my decades of using firefox

Have you tried reviewing the Firefox content blocking settings? I have no issues accessing Gmail with the Standard setting, but anything higher may cause issues.
You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History -> Show All History" or "View -> Sidebar -> History").
Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from this domain like history and cookies and passwords and exceptions and cache, so be cautious. If you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make sure to backup this data or make a note.
You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of involved files.
If you revisit a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.
